when I hear an untruth about myself I’m left speechless. I know I’m not the only one, and maybe I’m even guilty of it sometimes. But sometimes people make of things up just to hurt us. All it takes is just to twist the facts up just enough and stick it to you. It is those little deceptions from family, friends, and loved ones, that undermine any sense of belonging. Why even fight that misrepresentation when the person is so convinced? Sometimes I even wonder why try to belong at all.
